For the past week, LibGen has reportedly been unavailable for many users, according to TorrentFreak and r/LibGen. Recently, there was a message on the forum mentioning that key members of LibGen were unable to participate in LibGen activities for an indefinite period of time. Without any signs from the maintainers, the future of LibGen remains unclear
Grown in lands where the battle between the desire for unconstrained access to readings and censorship pressure has lasted for centuries, LibGen was a beacon of free access in the times of digital leviathan dictating what you should read and think.
I have my fingers crossed for LibGen and for their librarians whose efforts have built a generation that does not respect and fear unnatural borders in spreading knowledge.

And indeed, volatility has been a hallmark of the market environment so far in 2022, with the S&P 500 still down more than 10% for the year-to-date after first sliding into a correction last month.

And Telegram has been attached to a fair few scandals related to terrorism, sexual exploitation and crime. Back in 2015, Vox described Telegram as “ISIS’ app of choice,” saying that the platform’s real use is the ability to use channels to distribute material to large groups at once. Telegram has acted to remove public channels affiliated with terrorism, but Pavel Durov reiterated that he had no business snooping on private conversations. Under the Sebi Act, the regulator has the power to carry out search and seizure of books, registers, documents including electronics and digital devices from any person associated with the securities market.
